7. Name a recent good book that you have read. "The Authoritarian Moment" by Ben Shapiro (nonfiction)
8. Name an obscure movie that you like. "Testament" with Jane Alexander. It's a 1983 ten hanky movie. Warning: Don't watch it without a bunch of tissues.
Here's a Wikipedia one sentence description:
"The film tells the story of how one small suburban town near the San Francisco Bay Area slowly falls apart after a nuclear war destroys outside civilization."
It's about nuclear fall out and the impact on all of the people in one small town especially one family. Don't ever watch it with company (or on an airplane) where people can see you blubbering away. People die off slowly including children. It is not about nuclear war (you don't see any bombs go off or any attacks), no politics involved, just the impact of radioactive fall out (radiation poisoning) and sick people who eventually die and the impact on the living who remain.
A very young Kevin Costner is in it in addition to Jane Alexander (got an Oscar nomination for it), Rebecca DeMornay and a very young Lukas Haas who steals the movie. William Devane has a very small role. Highly recommend it. It's a good quality movie.
1. If you could live in one other state besides where you are, which state would it be?
I can think of several
2. Name the first famous person you can think of whose name starts with Z
Zsa Zsa Gabor
3. Beer, Wine, Mixed drinks, or none of them?
None, thank you
4. Have you ever been fired from a job?
Yes my first one when I was a teenager
5. What is your favorite thing about the fall? Everything!
6. What kind of computer do you use?
I was using a desktop computer my son built for me, but I spilled coffee on it, and ruined it
(It was like 12 yrs old though) learned my lesson not to have a drink near my PC though!!!
So now I am using a laptop for now. It's not too bad, but I prefer desktops because that is what I
am use to....maybe I can get my son to build me another one, He told me awhile back before all this happened though and some sort of chips or something that they use to made video graphic cards is in short supply so graphic cards right now are through the roof expensive. I wonder if they still are...
7. Name a recent good book that you have read.
Intensity by Dean Koontz (I think it is an older book though) Terrifying
8. Name an obscure movie that you like.
